 Features    [ Edit | History ] - By David_W @Jan 26, 2010
E-Green (Energy Green Engine)

The innovative drive E-Green Engine technology features an E-Green Mode that automatically closes drive applications when not in use to help conserve energy - helping the environment by decreasing CO2 emissions and reducing the depletion of trees.

OTS (Optimal Tuning Strategy)

With OTS, the drive will perform a test before really burning which generate the optimal burning strategy automatically for the best burning quality.

E-Hammer

E-Hammer allows you to permanently delete  the data on writable disc (CD-R and DVD-R) formats. Once the data is delete d, it cannot be recovered or restored, and the optical drive will not be able to read the disc. This ensures data security, eliminates the hassle of scratching your old discs, and conforms with our commitment to environmental protection.

AVRS (Auto Vibration Reducing System)

The AVRS technology is designed to minimize the vibration caused by the spindle motor and resonance between components as well as the drive and PC cases. AVRS is designed to reduce vibration anD noise induced by unbalanced mass of rotating machinery. With AVRS, ASUS DRW-24B1 provides high readability and playability.

Comment: Today I'll be checking out the DRW-24B1ST DVD-RW drive from Asus. Asus is known for making quality hardware, but is that also true of their optical drives? Let's find out.

Comment: ASUS's DRW-24B1ST DVD-RW SATA drive focuses on all of those aspects and goes the extra mile by adding security. When buying an ASUS product, either it be a graphics card, sound card, monitor, or even an optical drive, you can be rest assured that you are getting a high quality product.

Comment: Today we are bringing you the latest of ASUS’s next generation of Optical Disc Drives, the DRW-24B1ST, that enables burning at incredibly fast speeds with innovating features such as E-Hammer, AVRS, OTS and E-Green

Comment: the ASUS DRW-24B1ST has not disappointed, it performed as well as any drive of comparable speed and type out there. The stuff that really makes the DRW-24B1ST perform above and beyond is the extra technology of OTS and AVRS and the additional programs like E-Green and E-Hammer.
